'Skateland'

Both nostalgic and universal in its theme, this drama about small-town life in the 1980s casts Shiloh Fernandez as a young Texas skating rink manager whose worldview broadens, pretty much by force.

The rink's future becomes shaky as youngsters move from skating toward other interests, leaving the Fernandez character to ponder his future with input from his girlfriend (Ashley Greene, "Twilight"). They both have family troubles that factor into the story co-written by director Anthony Burns. A.J. Buckley ("CSI: NY") and James LeGros also appear. *** (PG-13: AS, P, V) (Also on Blu-ray)
